Will Smith does not live large; the Hollywood A-lister lives legendary. The actor and musician reportedly owns a property so large in Calabasas, California, that it has its own ZIP code. With a net worth that places him among Tinseltown’s richest, it is no surprise that his slice of heaven is more a fortress and less a home. While few have peeked inside, the property’s sheer scale and data available online tell one everything about the life of a true showbiz titan.

From a cinema wing and basketball court to custom-built architecture, here is a rare glimpse inside Will Smith’s sprawling estate.

The Daily Mail recently revealed aerial shots of Will Smith’s one-of-a-kind abode, giving fans an insight into his larger-than-life lifestyle. Per the outlet, the secluded California property boasts resort-like amenities, which include a sunbathing area with a shed and daybeds alongside the quintessential — but still excessive — nine bedrooms. The 25,000 square feet of construction forming Will and his estranged wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s nest includes a meditation room, a recording nook, and an entire wing dedicated to cinema. 

The sports complex, as mentioned earlier, features a basketball court; however, that is not where it ends. Will Smith’s complex also includes tennis and volleyball courts. What truly speaks of the actor’s fortune, though, is that his property includes a mansion exclusive for his Rottweilers. Smith notably listed the property for sale in 2014 for a whopping USD 42 million, but eventually withdrew the listing. In discussing Will Smith’s financial standing, it is important to glance at his contribution to pop culture that helped him build such an empire.

The hits that built Will Smith’s Hollywood empire

Will Smith is most revered for his role in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, in which he played a fictionalized version of himself, bringing some much-needed humor and charm to the 1990s television scene. He became a hot commodity with the Men in Black franchise in 1997, with his turn as a resourceful agent shouldering the responsibility of protecting Earth from extraterrestrial threats. He then went full-on romantic hero in 2005’s Hitch, where he helped awkward men find love.

To sum up, Smith’s glorious net worth, some of which he spent on his above-discussed luxury estate, was built with care and precision and, most importantly, an unmatched work ethic. And his journey is far from over, with multiple projects lined up for this year. Who knows — maybe Will Smith wishes to expand his 150-acre estate even more. His talent, ambition, and Hollywood dominance definitely allows for it.
